Albums of 2018

David Byrne. American Utopia. A good album but not a great album. I was put in mind of LCD Soundsystem but then again LCD Soundsystem were only ever Talking Heads version 2.0.

Will be seeing him in Bilbao this July.

Is the purpose of this thread to post top albums of 2018 or any old album that comes out in the year?

Every single one of these albums are critically acclaimed mate. Although I’ve been a big fan of these artists for years now.

All your post says is that you are old and behind the times. Nothing wrong with that.

He hasn’t a clue mate. There’s always great new music to listen to, this has been as good a year as any. I’ve been listening to the new Beach House record (7), nice recoding.

I’ve nothing against New music but you’ve posted up shite here more often than not… The venga boys are critically acclaimed, I wouldn’t be using that to guide you.

You’re cool bro.

Listening to this on a sweltering night in Dunmore and loving it.

Lovely pop album here from Eleanor Friedberger.
